Four Mile Run under advisory after sewage spill

WASHINGTON – Don’t wade in it, fish in it, or let your dog play in it.

The advisory for a stretch of Four Mile Run in Arlington and Alexandria comes after a Sunday morning car wreck involving a sewage truck that dumped up to 1,800 gallons of sewage. Officials say the sewage likely flowed into area storm drains and eventually into Four Mile Run.

The sewage spill affects the waterway south of Interstate 395 along South Glebe Road, officials say.
